Happy #PiDay! Here are some pies to consider: If nothing changes, the remaining carbon budget to stay under 1.5°C, 1.7°C, and 2°C will be used up in 4, 12, and 25 years, respectively. Let’s eat up by setting all the fossil fuels on fire.

An infographic from the Global Carbon Project displays three pie charts illustrating the remaining carbon budget for different global warming thresholds (1.5°C, 1.7°C, and 2.0°C) with a 50% likelihood. Each chart features a large dark gray circle representing 2,770 gigatonnes of CO2 already consumed, paired with a smaller orange wedge representing the remaining budget. As the temperature threshold increases, the orange "remaining" wedge grows significantly: it is a narrow sliver of 170 GtCO2 for 1.5°C, a moderate slice of 525 GtCO2 for 1.7°C, and a large segment of 1,055 GtCO2 for 2.0°C. The visual contrast highlights how little of the global carbon budget remains to stay within the most ambitious climate goals compared to the vast amount already emitted.
